Best Book Store

When it comes to shopping for quality used and vintage books (which, let’s be honest, is almost always more fun than shopping for new ones), Cheever Books is hands-down the place to go. Here, you can spend hours searching through the store’s bookshelves, which are always packed with one-of-a-kind and rare finds. Whether you’re stopping in for a specific title or are just there to browse, this local gem pleases both tourists and locals alike, which makes it our top spot for book-buying in San Antonio. Plus, it has that great, old book smell we absolutely love.
